Just for Transparency; the current data that I am working with is coming from the various PDFs you can find on history.house.gov as listed here. Looking at the PDF for any given year I then tally the votes by Party, by State, and from there I get the totals that I've placed in the infobox. There are two concerns I have with these numbers however. The first are the At-Large Districts, in which case I have adopted the rule that the highest number of votes in the State (either the total of the Party's candidates among all the #'d Districts, or the top At-Large candidate) represents the Party's vote in that State, akin to how we represent the vote for Presidential elections when voters were asked to vote for the Electors individually. The only problem with that method currently is that the PDF's don't list the total vote in any given race, and as the At-Large races have multiple seats with the voters voting multiple times, it isn't possible to discern a hard total. The second is that the Party loyalties of some candidates are not particularly clear. Normally I would be able to check them against other sources available to me but given the present closures of the libraries, well that isn't an option. Chances are though that I will have to revisit some of these numbers and adjust them at a later date, possibly two months time given current trends. --Ariostos (talk) 23:29, 9 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
